Ginger Gentile - Erasing Family: Loving Your Children More Than You Hate Your Ex BRAVE JOURNEYS with TAMMI FARADAY

    • Mental Health

Filmmaker & Changemaker - Ginger Gentile is on a mission to save children from the trauma of high-conflict divorce. Drawing on her own journey as a child torn between two parents, Ginger’s first documentary, ERASING DAD (Borrando a Papa), was instrumental in getting the Argentinian government to pass mandatory co-parenting laws.
Her follow up feature documentary, ERASING FAMILY, exposes the heart-wrenching anguish experienced by children when a loving parent is erased from their lives.   This issue affects 22 million families in the US alone. No birthdays, no holidays, no contact whatsoever.  We’re taking about loving mothers & fathers who haven’t seen their children for years.  
Parental alienation destroys lives, bankrupts’ people, tears children from their homes, separates biological siblings, causes lifelong psychological damage & it’s a $50 billion dollar industry.
Ginger works tirelessly to advocate for the rights of children and parents & is unyielding in her hopes to reform longstanding customs and laws for custody and child support that are supposed to protect children, but which she says often obliterates families.
As a now in-demand consultant, Ginger coaches parents who are suffering from parental alienation, helping them reunite with their erased children and heal the estrangement caused by divorce or separation.  Ginger also works to educate Family Court professionals on how to combat this silent, but truly devastating, public health crisis.  
Ginger’s dedication & leadership in this space have not gone unnoticed and in 2019 she was heralded as an Architect of Change by Maria Shriver.
